~:[CH13 - Day 277]:~ Forgetful Memories
It was almost time for the school day to begin and the realization hit me, today was the top 6 rally. Just before leaving my house, I moved my camera out of my backpack, thinking, I didn't need it today. I did. I scrambled a bit trying to get my camera to school, but in the end, it didn't work out. I definitely forgot something important two days in a row, but what I didn't forget was the memory of these moments that I experienced regardless of being able to capture the moment or not. Yes, it would have been great to have quality photos of this event, but still yet, I captured the moment in my mind, as while I may have forgotten my camera, it will be a lot harder for me to forget this experience. A few years down the road, I will still have a few video clips I took on this day and the images won't be clear as if I had my camera, still yet, there will keep my memories intact. As much as getting the perfect shot at the right moment is a goal of mine, I have to keep in mind that I shouldn't allow that drive to make me miss the memory that is being created at this moment. While I love to capture these memories to share with all those involved, I'll be sure to soak in these moments as well, so that they become memories I'll never forget.
